Dear Donita So sorry to hear that devastating news, I always enjoyed Mychael's interesting topics for discussion on this forum over the years, we often joked that we were "older" than the average Micra driver and about the fact that we were probably the only 2 left that had purchased our green...

Thanks for that, if it's ok with you I'll take both sets, they are hard to come by these days, just send me a PM with your account details and I will put the money in your bank account probably on Friday or just PM me your contact number and I'll ring you to get your details, what ever is more...

Thanks Rudy, I appreciate it.

Just wondering if there was anyone out there that has any spare headlamp protectors sets they wanted to sell or even just the driver side one which is the one I am actually after. Thanks

I too am probably a little older than your average Micra owner but I still get a buzz everytime I take mine for a drive, it still feels so zippy and handles like a go-kart, much more fun than a lot of the offerings out there, even today, not to mention as you would probably remember they weren't...

Wow, 418,000k's and owned since new, thats a great effort Mychael, I have had my Micra since 97 when it was only a few months old, just wondering how many other original or long term Micra owners there are left out there??

I experienced exactly the same problem with mine when I installed a new clutch and clutch cable. If your clutch friction or take up point is too close to the floor (ie there is a lot of play at right at the top of the clutch pedal, you should try ajusting the cluch cable so the friction or take...

Hi Mychael I recently had the exactly the same dilemma as you re: the Dizzy. If you go on to ebay and type in "Nissan Micra distributor", it will bring up a number of International sellers (mainly UK)flogging new Micra Dizzys. They range from about 85 to 100 pounds (appox $165-$170 depending on...

Thanks for posting that Mychael, I have had my Micra since early 97 and have probably gone through 3 "genuine Nissan" antennas at approx 100 bucks each, great to know there is an alternative out there. Henry

Thats fantastic Mychael, I am convinced the green ones go better ;) I remember reading on my original sales brochure the 600 km claim on a little 40 odd litre tank and said, naaah, but there it is! Henry

Hi guys Haven't been a huge poster over the years but still loyal to the cause! 11 years, 181000+ km and no intention of (or money for) an upgrade any time soon. Cheers

Hi Alex, So sorry to hear about your little Micra but glad to hear your ok. Like you I have not posted on this forum for a long while but I still enjoy checking in every now and again and seeing what everyone else is up to. I still remember your little beast when we all met down in Canberra for...

I just spotted a very original looking 2 female owner 97 Super S series 2 on carsales.com located in Coburg Victoria. I always see people on the site asking where they can purchase one of these rare beauties, there cant be many left now, especially in such original condition. I think the add...

Thats great Tezzah!, I think that makes you our new record holder, half a mill should be a sinch from here. Go Micra!

Just noiticed a Micra for sale in Brisbane on Ebay, nothing startling exept for the odometer reading of 355000k's!. Just more proof that these little wonders go on forever. I know Mychael from Victoria has over 300k on his, but can anyone top this figure? Henry

Gareth, Bosch do an excellent replacement boom and wiper unit. The codes you need are BBR 500S for the driver side and BBR 450S for the passenger side. These units are excellent quality and fit perfectly onto the Micra arms.They are exactly the same specifications as factory and they cost...

I read today in Wheels (or Motor) that when the K 12 finally arrives at the end of the year it will only be available as an auto (non CVT). This seems to be aridiculous move by Nissan to me as they are already excluding a massive slice of the small car market. Mitsubishi recently made the same...

Congratulations Mychael!! What a great purchase! Also fantastic news that the meticulously kept "hack" is going to such a great new home. Dave must be pleased, though no doubt he will soon being going through massive withdrawals! Henry

My gearbox did not respond particularly well to VMX 80 either Mychael. I am using a prodct called Neo 75-90 platnium. This is imported from the USA by an Aussie distributer, pricey but nice smooth shifts even from cold. It is also meant to be a lifetime fill. The details are on an earlier thread...

Congratulations Mychael! That is a huge achievement and with so few problems.Not even a throttle body issue! As you say, the older and rarer they become, the more you worry about them and the more irreplacible they become. I once saw an auto SLX for sale with approximately 315000km on the clock...
